What is a “peaceful protest” nowadays?
I hear this term bandied about a lot. Everything is so “peaceful,” yet cities are smoldering ash, countless people have been beaten and injured, and the list of dead Americans grows longer and longer each day.
Yet, I am told by CNN and other fake news outlets that these protests are peaceful.

Let me ask you this….if 17 Americans died as a result of a “largely peaceful Trump rally” do you think the media and politicians and city officials would just sit back and do nothing?
Of course not.
But all they keep telling us is to ignore our lying eyes and repeat this phrase “The Protests Are Largely Peaceful” until we finally believe it.
And speaking of “peaceful protests” a disabled vet and single father was just shot in the head trying to maneuver his car through one.
A lawyer who was reportedly participating in a small George Floyd-related street protest allegedly shot a driver in the head on Thursday evening in downtown Alamosa, Colo. The driver is reportedly on life support.
The victim is identified by several news outlets as Danny Pruitt, 49, reportedly a disabled military veteran and single father.
Cops arrested defense attorney James Marshall, 27, on a slew of charges about three hours later in connection with the shooting.
Although an investigation is ongoing into this extremely disturbing incident, Alamosa cops say there is no evidence thus far that Pruitt tried to drive his vehicle into or through the group, despite what some of the demonstrators apparently claimed.

This man was able to make it home after serving in wars, but he couldn’t make it out of a “peaceful” Black Lives Matter protest.
Something is very wrong here and nobody seems to want to address it. Instead, we all must sit here and agree that the protests are “mostly peaceful” while the bodies of the injured and dead stack up.
